Go Ape Treetop Adventure {Review}
Have you ever wondered what the forest would look like from the tops of the trees? Or maybe you’ve wanted to be Tarzan since you were a kid? Well, Go Ape Treetop Adventure is your answer! They offer multiple locations around the country to fly over and through the trees!
What is a Go Ape Treetop Adventure Course?
A Go Ape Treetop Adventure Course is an outdoor experience that provides participants 2-3 hours of outdoor fun and exercise. The result is spectacular. The course allows participants to explore the park from an otherwise unobtainable vantage point while navigating through the treetops using zip lines, obstacles and tarzan swings.
We start by equiping participants with harnesses, pulleys and carabiners, give them a 30 minute safety briefing and training and let them loose into the forest canopy, free to fly on zip lines, swing through the trees, and observe the surroundings. Of course, instructors are always on hand, regularly patrolling the forests. The Go Ape Treetop Adventure course gets the adrenalin pumping, gets people out of their comfort zones and above all, it’s a great outdoor activity for families, friends, and corporate groups.
Whether you’re looking for your first experience in soaring over the trees or you’re looking for the next adventure, Go Ape Treetop Adventure is the place for you. They have several options besides the awesome zip lines like rope ladders, tarzan swings, magic carpets and more. They even have junior courses for the younger folks in your group.
Not only is the course a great way to spend the day (it usually takes 2-4 hours to do most of the activities), but most locations are established in wonderful parks. Many if not all of these parks have walking/hiking trails, boat rentals, shelters and picnic areas so you can make a whole day of it. And there are trails if you want to watch your friends and family doing the course above your heads so you can enjoy the moments as well.
My family enjoyed a visit to the Eagle Creek Park in Indianapolis, Indiana. It was a great moment in my house when I announced what our activity for the day was and the kids quickly tried to work out when we would be able to visit Go Ape. This location has 5 zip lines, plus a BUNCH of other obstacles like rope ladders, and a flying carpet! Plus, the park itself was wonderful for a picnic and hiking for those of my family who didn’t necessarily want to go through the zip line course. Here are a few pictures of our day!
